§ 56. Lieut.-Colonel RAWasked the Minister of Health whether he is aware that, under the present system of flour milling, the germ and certain other constituents of wheat necessary for the provision of the most nutritious form of bread are removed from the flour; and whether he will take such steps as may be necessary to enable the public to obtain bread made from flour containing the germ and other essential constituents, in addition to the percentage of extraction required by regulation?
§ Dr. ADDISONI understand that the percentage of extraction required by regulation is a minimum. There is nothing to prevent the making of bread from flour containing a higher percentage of the wheat if the demand for it exists.
